Compound Leverage has become a SOG patented trademark for folding tools. With the same hand pressure you will generate twice the wire cutting and gripping power than all other conventional designs.

Caring for Your Multi-Tool

Regularly clean and fully dry your multi-tool, especially after use. When necessary, oil the pivot points with a light oil. Be sure to clean the blade and handle set after each use. A mild solution of soap and water should remove any dirt and debris that have accumulated during use (avoid harsh detergents such as laundry or dish soap, and chlorine products). It is best not to immerse your folding tool in water.

To remove any debris from inside the handle you can use a toothpick for any visible lint or dirt, or a Q-Tip for smaller amounts of dirt and debris. Also, a can of compressed air is useful for completely clearing out any embedded dirt or lint. Apply a light coat of water-displacing oil (such as WD-40 or 3-In-1) or other desiccant (a drying agent), and then wipe down and lightly lubricate the tool's surface and pivot points. This will not only remove any dirt and debris which might inhibit the tool's functioning, but will also help prevent oxidation and rusting on the surface steel.

Second, this is a really good pair of scissors. It's not great for cardboard, because the body get's in the way of the cut. But it has a small knife for that. What it really excels at is cutting thin metal. I didn't even think about it and tried to cut through some 1/2 inch steel strapping. I barely had to try, thanks to the compound leverage. I have a harder time with cutting pliers.

Also, I bought two because I gave one to my brother. Too bad I wanted to play with mine, or I would have waited till Christmas to give it to him.

The CrossCut is made in China but it is still a great SOG product. When open, the scissors have little play in them and none between the blades. What I like most is that it is assembled with torx screws. The tools and scissor blades can all be removed, with only the handles and springs riveted together. I like taking things apart, so I appreciate it when something is designed without glue or rivets, and torx is my favorite type of screw.

Overall, this is a great tool. Because of its small size, I take it everywhere I go.

After purchasing the SOG CC51-CP Crosscut tool and a Leatherman Micra, the Micra wins simply because the handle is much more comfortable. The scissors move more easily on the Micro and while the SOG has the gearing, one must squeeze the sharp edges of the handle on the SOG to use them that. It's small and lightweight, but for scissors I'd rather use those on a small swiss army knife than those on this SOG.

I purchased this to replace a Leatherman Squirt S4 (discontinued). Construction is solid, but not quite as good as the squirt. The gears give a rough feel in the pocket, but are not a problem (a case isn't included and I haven't needed one). I like the toothpick and use it more than the phillips on the squirt. The tweezers are more substantial. The scissors are longer and work better on fine materials. The compound leverage on the scissors is offset by the longer blade (it's tough to cut the full length of the blades on thick material.) The gears do get in the way at times. The SOG must also be opened to get to any of the tools. Not perfect, but the best I could find with solid scissors - and a great price.

Hands down this is the best scissors multi-tool of its size on the market. The patented SOG compound leverage system provides strength beyond its small dimension, the angle of the scissors is far superior to that of comparable products. High quality and easy to carry on a key-chain.

I have had several micro Multi-tools, (I keep losing them!) from Wenger to Leatherman and others. As far as a keychain tool, this is my favorite so far.

The gear-drive on the scissors makes cutting cord, cardboard, paper, and those pesky plastic bubble packs that it seems like everything is packed in any more, a snap! Decent pen knife, really good tweezers, toothpick, regular screwdriver, nail file / nail cleaner, and a small screwdriver that is perfect for eyeglasses screw. Hook it on a keychain, or put one in your Altoids tin PSK (Personal Survival Kit).

You'll be surprised at how many times a day you wind up using this handy little tool.

I chose the crosscut because I wanted to carry some beefier scissors on me. I own a Leatherman Squirt Ps4, which is the key-chain sized multitool with small pliers. The scissors on the Ps4 are very small, similar to the ones on my Swiss Army Knife (or SAK) classic. I already carry a a full size plier style multitool. The Crosscut should be useful for general cutting and even first-aid, with it's small knife and beefy tweezers. Like other SOG tools it's very robust and all stainless steel. The compound leverage gears give it more cutting power than regular scissors, and it fits on your key-ring. Should last for years.

I purchased this multitool because it had scissors instead of pliers as the main tool. What I really wanted was the S-66N, but can't afford it. This tool is *nice*. but not the tool I was hoping to get. When closed, the ratcheting gears will poke you. Guess I will have to save up for the S-66N or hope that it goes on sale soon!!

This is potentially a handy little tool at a good price. The only problem is that the scissors don't work particularly well. It was for the scissors that I purchased it and it is disappointing that they are poorly designed and do not work as well as a small pair of scissors.
